Frequently Asked Questions

Sight words are critical in early literacy because they make up 80-90% of the words children encounter in text, and recognizing them instantly greatly simplifies reading, improving fluency and comprehension. These high-frequency words, such as "the" and "and," enhance reading fluency, comprehension, and confidence, laying the foundation for more advanced literacy skills, reducing cognitive load, and supporting performance on standardized tests and overall language development. In a nutshell, mastering sight words is essential for building strong reading skills in children.

SnapWords® are designed to cater to diverse learning styles, particularly accommodating visual learners who benefit from associating words with images, seeing the whole word before delving into details like phonics, spelling, and decoding. This approach begins with presenting the entire word, allowing learners to establish a visual memory of the word's form before exploring spelling patterns and phonics rules, ultimately empowering them to tackle more complex, unfamiliar words. While sequential methods typically start with teaching details before introducing the whole word, SnapWords® recognize that right-brain dominant learners thrive by grasping words and phonics holistically.

For individuals with a left-brain dominant learning style, who think in words and handle abstractions adeptly, the images on the front of the cards may appear redundant or distracting. The unadorned word on the back may align better with their preferences. However, for right-brained visual learners, the inclusion of images is indispensable. These images enable them to create a mental picture and store the entire word in visual memory, matching their cognitive style. This image then serves as a recall anchor, even when they encounter the plain word. If asked how they remember the word while reading, they will often attribute it to the image stored in their visual memory.

SnapWords® take a comprehensive approach by incorporating body motion to engage kinesthetic learners, activating body memory. Additionally, the inclusion of sentences aids in comprehending and using words correctly within the context of sentences. This multifaceted method ensures that SnapWords® address various learning preferences and provide a holistic learning experience.

When introducing sight words to your child, the appropriate starting point depends on their familiarity with these words. If your child is a beginner, commence with List A. However, if your child has some prior exposure to sight words, it's essential to assess their knowledge. Begin with List A and have them read the words aloud. They should be able to recognize and read these words quickly, without the need to sound them out. If your child successfully reads all the words in the list, advance to the next list and repeat the evaluation process. In cases where your child encounters words they need to sound out, it's advisable to commence with that specific list. Initiating with a list that contains words they already know provides a confidence boost and helps them transition to this new approach to learning.

The Teaching Cards come in a convenient size of 5.5" in width and 4.25" in height, making them perfect for group instruction. If you prefer a more compact option, the Pocket Chart Size Cards are half the dimensions, measuring 4.25" in width and 2.75" in height. These smaller cards are excellent for small group activities and independent practice, offering flexibility in how you use the materials.

I have just started using SnapWords in my classroom. The kids are picking up on their sight words very quickly with the help of the flashcards. So far I approve of most of the motions and sayings that go with the sight words. There are a few that I think could be worded better. I also like using the parts of speech cards (nouns, verbs, etc). The visual and kinesthetic aspect of SnapWords makes it very appealing to different learners.

This are an amazing tool. Students love these cards.

Wonderful, well-thought out, beautifully made systems. I was so worried that my son was falling behind and being a single mom, felt I had no where to turn for guidance. I am so thankful to Child1st that you had exactly the resource I needed. My son and I are now excited about learning together and it is no longer a daily struggle. I now see the wheels in his head turning and watch him pick up each lesson quickly. There was a lot of thought put into helping parents to understand and teach each list or lesson. Each resource is of such high value for me. This system also works very well for kids in Montessori and helping to streamline concepts from home to school! Thank you again.

I tutor students with dyslexia and these are AMAZING for them!

As a speech therapist I use this product ALL THE TIME ! I use it to build articulation skills, build grammar skills, extend and expand sentences. I have three year old's using and loving SNAP words. I attended a conference, years ago, in Traverse City MI . I immediately introduced SNAP words to my teachers and they have used it every since.
